Posted March 16, 201114 yr So after seeing a few ipad installs i decided i wanted to do it myself. picked one up this past weekend and jailbroke it to run the "noaccessorysplash IOS4" app. that way it disables the Accessory Connected screen. got it all working. now i gotta fiberglass it into the dash...

March 16, 201114 yr Author now the hard part of glassing it into the dash and moving the h/u to the center console and the a/c controls to the glove box...
March 16, 201114 yr now the hard part of glassing it into the dash and moving the h/u to the center console and the a/c controls to the glove box... Yeah perhaps I'll switch head units, mine as well get one for when I do my front stage. Luckily for my car I mounted the hu at the bottom of the dash, so my ipad is above it, easy to get to hu controls

Completely agree with Sefugi, anything to do with glassing is exciting to me.I'm moving into a new house in a few weeks and I should have a lot more room to do projects, I'm hoping to do some glassing for a while, make some pod/shelf speakers, and move on to my doors.

March 16, 201114 yr Author i found this which should cut down on the build time...http://store.soundmancaraudio.com/product_info.php?cPath=47&products_id=156
March 16, 201114 yr i found this which should cut down on the build time...http://store.soundmancaraudio.com/product_info.php?cPath=47&products_id=156I started watching their youtube channel about 2 months ago, I remember seeing a few episodes of doing dash ipads. Never knew they were selling that
March 16, 201114 yr that thing will save you some time for sure, bet whoever came up with that idea has made a few bucks off it.
March 16, 201114 yr i found this which should cut down on the build time...http://store.soundmancaraudio.com/product_info.php?cPath=47&products_id=156That pan would help on time but $60? I think I would try making my own pan before I spent that kind of $$.
March 16, 201114 yr that thing will save you some time for sure, bet whoever came up with that idea has made a few bucks off it.Obviously the company has tons of overhead, but I remember seeing a few episodes where they had to meet their quota at the end of the day, I think they were doing like $10k or something everyday.

I think I would try making my own pan before I spent that kind of $$.if i had time i would probably do it myself. but i only have wed/sundays off. so anything that will save me time will help.
